Lyrics

(Traditional)

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
For he once was a true love of mine

Ask him to find me an acre of land
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Between the salt water and the sea-sand
For then he’ll be a true love of mine

Ask him to plough it with a lamb’s horn
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
And sow it all over with one peppercorn
For then he’ll be a true love of mine

Ask him to reap it with a sickle of leather
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
And gather it up with a rope made of heather
For then he’ll be a true love of mine

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
For he once was a true love of mine
